Strike preparation- you may have received a letter from the employer
Thank you for those who have participated in the strike vote! Thanks also to those that voted in support of action up to a strike!
You may have or soon be receiving a letter.
Summary: Code 1 is essential, code 2 replaces someone essential in the event of their absence, code 3 is called in only in the event of a major crisis. (Letters may say code 2/3)
If you are deemed essential, it doesn’t impact your vote or your support. It just means you wouldn’t be on the actual picket line during work hours if we do take strike action.
(You would continue to work, get regular pay)
This is all prep work and things are getting figired out >more instructions will be coming.
See this link, especially section on essential workers… (we are also sending specific questions to PSAC for clarification)

Change in CEIU Ontario Townhall on Return to Office
Good afternoon CEIU members,
Upon further reflection we are going to reschedule the CEIU Ontario Townhall on RTO booked for tomorrow evening.
It is International Women’s Day and there are already many events happening throughout the day to celebrate IWD. In addition, many of you, our members, may already be participating in IWD events in your community in the evening. We felt it was best to move this event to a different evening to avoid asking our members to choose between these two important activities. More information to follow in the next few days on the new date/time for our Townhall.

CEIU Ontario Townhall #2 on RTO – March 8th, 2023 6:30pm – 8:00pm EST
Please note this town hall originally scheduled for March 7 has been rescheduled to March 8 due to a conflict.
There has been no change to the process to follow to ensure you receive an email invitation with zoom link.
